It's also essential for sending things to lulu.com if you want to
publish things that way. I had endless trouble with Ghostscript and
PDFprinter on a PC failing to embed all the fonts, but it worked first
time with OvationPro to Postscript file and then ps2pdf.
One comment, Ovation Pro for Windows has an option where it generates
the PostScript when you are printing to a PostScript printer.
OP->Misc->Choices->Print->Direct PostScript ON
Font substitution on Windows is set via the printer driver
configuration:
Right Click on Printer in Printers and Faxes
->Properties->Device Settings->FontSubstitution Table
However the precise details of where to find this will depend on which
version of Windows. However it is there.
OP also lets you control what format fonts are stored in the PostScript,
type 1 or type 3.
Another thing, is that some PDF printer drivers like Adobe Acrobat
behave as PostScript printer drivers. Others though act as Windows Meta
file drivers - like almost all Windows printer drivers.
